Problem with Slingshot V Swimwear for G8F

in Technical Help (nuts n bolts)

Hi, I recently purchased this swimwear: https://www.daz3d.com/slingshot-v-dforce-swimwear-for-g8f

as well as these textures for it: https://www.daz3d.com/instyle-slingshot-swim

I installed both through DIM as usual, which 95% of the time works flawlessly afterwards.

I tried using them today, but I have an issue I have never seen before. First, the Slingshot does not appear in Smart Content under Wardrobe. I can add it manually through Content Library, and it works okay, as well as the materials provided with it.

However, if I try to apply the InStyle textures for it (from content library), I get a "missing files" error (see screenshot). Trying to "Install Selected" took FOREVER and then... still the same issue.

I then found I can find the Slingshot Swimwear in Smart Content under Products -> Lost and Found. I tried "updating" it from there, which again took forever and... nothing changed.

Any ideas how to fix it to make both work properly? I don't mind working from the content library as I do it half the time anyway, but I'm guessing that fixing the swimwear to work from Smart Content will also fix the issue with the InStyle textures.

Thanks in advance for any help!

    1st, that instyle texture addon is not for the product you mentioned at the top... but for https://www.daz3d.com/slingshot-swim

    2nd, lots of immigrated products from Rendo have no metadata... that's why you see them in Lost 'n found. Daz has no plan to provide metadata for them, so you either add metadata to them yourself or install them by using Content Wizard.

    Hm, weird. Why is it trying to specifically load the one I have then? (if it was trying to load something I do not have at all, I imagine it would just say not found, period)

    It seems that you've logged in Daz Connect...Work Offline first of all, try again to see what'll happen.

    Still the same thing. But I guess it being for a different swimsuit explains the mystery so thanks. As I said, I work from content library a lot of the time anyway so I do not mind if it's just there.
